As soon as the family came out of the greenhouse, a worker from the village came running over and said, "Master Liu is at the door..."

Shen Liu came over without saying hello, Sheng Xuan and Xiao Wen hurried out to greet him. Xiao Lan and Zhang Shi did not show up, but stayed in the manor.

Xiaolan gave her personal maid Xiaoqing a wink, and she sent the maid to the front to inquire about the news.

Soon, the little girl told Xiaoqing the news she had found out, "Sixth Master also came to the farm in the suburbs today to take a look. He happened to pass by our farm and saw our carriage, so he came to take a look..."

Xiao Lan nodded, smiling as she savored the little girl's words. "Mom, let's eat at the farm for lunch. I'll go pick some vegetables." Xiao Lan said.

"We have to keep Sixth Master entertained for dinner, so you pick more," said Zhang.

Xiao Lan nodded, picked up a basket, and went to pick vegetables in the greenhouse. Zhang followed in, and neither of them used the maid to pick vegetables.

After picking for a while, Xiao Lan said to the little girl beside her, "Go ask my father and Xiao Wen if they have any other arrangements."

The little girl hurried to the front to ask questions, and soon came back, "Miss, when I went over just now, I heard Master Liu say that he wanted to come over to see the greenhouse..."

After hearing the little girl's report, Xiao Lan picked up the basket and walked up to Zhang. "Mom, they are coming to the greenhouse. Let's go back to the house first..."

Mrs. Zhang nodded.

Just as the mother and daughter were about to walk out of the greenhouse, they heard footsteps coming from outside. Xiao Lan also vaguely heard Shen Liu's voice...

"Just meet him, it's not like we haven't met before... Besides, we're farmers, and we don't have as many rules as the ladies in the city. As long as the etiquette is acceptable, we can just be open and honest..." Obviously, Zhang also heard the footsteps and Shen Liu's voice outside. She also knew that Shen Liu had arrived. There was no place for them to hide now, so it was better for them to meet openly.

Xiao Lan also knew that it was too late to avoid it now. She couldn't really act awkwardly, as if she had to cover herself with something when they met.

The mother and daughter walked to the gate. Xiao Lan bowed to Shen Liu who was coming towards them, and Shen Liu bowed to Zhang.

"Thank you, ma'am, for the fresh vegetables you sent me these days." Seeing the basket in the hands of the little maid who followed Zhang and Xiaolan, Shen Liu thanked Zhang.

No matter what era it is, no matter who it is, people like people who are well-mannered. Zhang is no exception. Moreover, as Shen Liu's future mother-in-law, the more Zhang looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him.

After winter, every time the farm delivered fresh vegetables, Zhang would send someone to deliver a portion to the Shen family. Of course, the Shen family would also return the favor every time. "They are all produced on our farm, so they are nothing." Zhang said with a smile.

After that, the group went into the greenhouse again. Shen Liu came to see the structure of the greenhouse this time. When they entered the greenhouse, they saw a field of lush green vegetables, which was very pleasing to the eye.

Sheng Xuan smiled and said, "The vegetables in this greenhouse are enough for us to enjoy for the whole winter..." This "we" naturally refers to their family and the Shen family.

"If Sixth Master's family also wants to buy a greenhouse, we will draw the blueprints in the next two days and send them to you in two days. Then we will select a few skilled workers to help build the greenhouse." Xiao Wen said.

After hearing this, Shen Liu nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for your trouble." The friendship between the two families now really does not need to be polite. Although Shen Liu said that he came to see the greenhouse, ever since he saw Xiao Lan, his eyes have been sweeping towards her. Now it is different from the past. Now it is difficult for him to talk to Xiao Lan alone. Shen Liu felt unhappy about this, but thinking that he would be able to marry Xiao Lan soon, this bit of unhappiness can be tolerated. And he also met Xiao Lan today, which can be considered worthwhile.

Shen Liu was going to stay for lunch at noon. Xiao Lan and Zhang were afraid that the preparations at the farm might not be right, so they said goodbye and went out to make arrangements themselves and watch over the kitchen.

After everything was arranged, Zhang suddenly laughed out loud. At this time, only Xiaolan and Zhang were in the room. Xiaolan was puzzled by Zhang's laughter, "Mom, what are you laughing at?" Xiaolan asked.

Zhang smiled and said, "Oh, no matter what their status is or what kind of temper they have, they are still young people after all..."

When Xiao Lan heard Zhang say this inexplicably, she didn't react at first. After she thought about it and looked at Zhang's expression, she understood that Zhang was talking about Shen Liu.

Xiao Lan was still a little girl after all. She pretended not to understand the meaning of Zhang's words and ignored her words. Instead, she lowered her head and pretended to be busy doing something.

Zhang didn't expose Xiao Lan's disguise, but just kept on talking, "He said he was just passing by. In my opinion, he obviously heard that our family was out, so he followed us... He also said he wanted to see the greenhouse... He is such a high-ranking official, he must have seen all kinds of good things... He is clearly using the excuse of seeing the greenhouse, he clearly wants to..."

At this point, Xiao Lan finally couldn't pretend anymore, so she interrupted and said, "Mom, look at these things, aren't they too ordinary... Should we change them for two?"

Zhang saw that Xiaolan was talking to her about the lunch arrangements, so she stopped teasing her. "You can do whatever you want, but don't change the chive box for me, I'm craving it..."

Leek dumplings are just a common noodle dish, and a very common staple food for farmers. However, it is very difficult to eat fresh leek dumplings in this season. When Xiaolan's family built a greenhouse and discussed what vegetables to grow, Zhang's Shengxuan strongly recommended growing leeks.
